Louisville Metro Police spokesman Dwight Mitchell said a Ford Contour was traveling southbound on Greenbelt Highway when it was struck by a Chevrolet Suburban traveling westbound on Lower Hunters Trace.

Police believe the driver of the Suburban, Nathan Browning, ran a red light and T-boned the Contour. According to the arrest report, the impact pushed the Contour 183 feet.

The Suburban rolled over and ended up nearly 400 feet away.

Browning is charged with three counts of manslaughter, four counts of wanton endangerment and criminal mischief.

Mitchell said all three people in the Contour died at the scene.

Mitchell said witnesses reported Browning ran a red light and appeared to be speeding.

Four witnesses reported they were nearly hit by Browning on Terry Road and had to steer off the road to avoid being hit.

Witnesses also told police they saw Browning crawl out of the Suburban and begin removing his clothes, according to the arrest report.

Browning is being held at Metro Corrections.

According to the arrest report, Browning is a persistent felony offender and should be on probation on a 2011 conviction.
